Aston Martin Celebrates The 80th Anniversary Of The First Spitfire Flight

By Saint Louis Motorcars

9/22/2016 - St. Louis, MO

The Supermarine Spitfire is considered among the most important feats of British engineering and often credited with playing a pivotal role in the Allied victory of World War II. To commemorate the legendary aircraft, Aston Martin has unveiled the ultra-limited V12 Vantage Spitfire 80 Edition.

Duxford Aircraft Company—the builders of the venerable Spitfire fighter plane—have taken personal interest in the development of the V12 Vantage Spitfire 80 Edition. Not only is the “Duxford Green” and gold paintjob meant to resemble the Spitfire aircraft, but Duxford Aircraft has also included a “rainbow bloom” tailpipe that resembles the exhaust of a Spitfire after a dogfight.

While only eight Aston Martin V12 Vantage Spitfire 80 models will be sold, STL Motorcars is one of the largest Aston Martin dealers in North America, and has even sold #19 of 24 Aston Martin Vulcan hypercar. Our new vehicle inventory is constantly stocked with the most sought after ultra-luxury, so be sure to check back often.

One of the most enduring creative partnerships in the automotive industry reached another milestone today. First with the global debut of the Vanquish Zagato Volante, followed by confirmation that not only will the Vanquish Zagato Speedster enter production, but it will be joined by a spectacular Vanquish Zagato Shooting Brake.

Aston Martin’s wildest-ever car - the track-only Aston Martin Vulcan - has been taken to breathtaking new extremes with a performance upgrade package developed by the luxury marque’s new performance brand, AMR. Making its public debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, the Aston Martin Vulcan AMR Pro sports extensive aerodynamic enhancements and shortened gearing to produce increased downforce, greater responsiveness and reduced lap times - improvements that underline its status as one of the world’s most extreme and exclusive track cars.

Since the first reveal of the Aston Martin Valkyrie hypercar in July 2016, Aston Martin, Red Bull Advanced Technologies and project partner AF Racing have been working intensively to further develop the Valkyrie’s aerodynamics, body styling and cockpit packaging.
